Book Description:

The central political issue in American politics during the 1990s is the need for political campaign reform. Regens and Gaddie argue that spending limits, contribution limits, and public financing proposals will not necessarily have the impact expected by advocates. The final fate of reform rests with self-interested incumbents who will design reform.
